3 This is Marshalls third Modern Slavery Statement. We are working hard to make Marshalls business operations and supply chains worldwide as toxic as possible to the organised criminals who seek to exploit vulnerable individuals and corporations. Our message to them is that there is simply no place for modern slavery in Marshalls; we are engaged, well informed, well connected and unafraid to transparently report and share what we find. We re committed to knowing all that we can about where there are risks and to taking appropriate action.

5 Marshalls classifies its suppliers in the following manner: 1) Goods for resale, e.g. natural stone. 2) Direct materials, e.g. aggregates, sand and cement. 3) Indirect purchases; consumables and services, e.g. engineering supplies, canteen, and cleaning services. Since 2005 Marshalls has had a programme of ongoing assessment regarding areas of high risk related to its supply chain. Internal processes and procedures due diligence, ethical auditing, modern slavery risk assessments, supplier engagement, modern slavery and human trafficking risk mapping - allow us to clearly identify high risk supply chains and/or areas within our supply chains where there is an increased risk of modern slavery. Our primary area of focus continues to be Goods for Resale specifically from India, Vietnam, China and Europe. The chart below shows modern slavery country risk mapping alongside percentage of Marshalls goods for resale and assists us in identifying high risk supply chains. STAGE 1 Initial Desk-based Due Diligence & Modern Slavery Risk Mapping referencing published data from sources including, but not limited to: International Peace Index Global Observatory, Human Rights Watch Global Report, Human Rights Monitor, Universal Human Rights Index Database, Amnesty International Annual Report, Transparency International s Corruption Index, Children s Rights and Business Atlas, Gender Inequality Index, Inequality- Adjusted Human Development Index, Social Institutions and Gender Index, The Global Slavery Index, Financial Inclusion Data/Global Findex, ITUC Global Rights Index, International Labour Organisation, Trafficking in Persons Report and World Bank World Governance Indicators, specifically Corruption, Government Effectiveness and Rule of Law Indicators. STAGE 2 Initial Supplier Visit and Audit against United Nations Global Compact Principles Human Rights; Labour; Environment; Anti-Corruption; mission/principles and the Ethical Trading Initiative Base Code; resources/eti-base-code. STAGE 3 Third Party Auditing & Modern Slavery Risk Mapping resulting in a clear corrective action plan if necessary. Goods For Resale (05/17-05/18) Supply Chain and Slavery Risk STAGE 4 Detailed Human Rights Impact Assessment monitoring and reporting which is then incorporated into decision making, ongoing updates, internal briefings, and corrective action plans, etc. Percentage Assessment for Goods for Resale is therefore undertaken in stages resulting in a go/no-go protocol. It is based primarily upon adherence to the UNGC Principles, implementation of the Ethical Trading Initiative Base Code, a clear Human Rights Impact Assessment and Modern Slavery Risk Mapping. Marshalls Modern Slavery Risk Mapping processes assists us in identifying the risks of modern slavery within the countries from where we source goods.

7 Vietnam 0 (Low Scoring): 1 (High Scoring) Rule of Law and Resilience to Corruption Labour Rights Access to Banking Education, Health, and Standard of Living Protection of Children from Exploitation Given the complexities of addressing the issues of modern slavery in supply chains much of our focus during 2017/18 has continued to be on India and Vietnam. We plan to continue to develop our work in India and Vietnam during 2018/19, expand this to include Europe during the same period, and to address China during All and any areas identified as high risk in the meantime will be treated as a priority by the organisation. Marshalls complies with all applicable trade laws. M-Way, clearly communicates the requirement that suppliers must comply with laws governing human trafficking and slavery and reserves Marshalls right to immediately investigate any discovered instances of non-compliance with M-Way. Government Efforts to combat Human Trafficing Vietnam Gender Equality 0 (Lower Risk):1 (Higher Risk) Marshalls has a process for the ongoing management/verification of its supply chains which seeks to evaluate and address risks of human trafficking and slavery in all areas of procurement. These now include: the organisation s supplier code of conduct, M-Way; a regular programme of announced ethical audits undertaken by third party organisations; a programme of modern slavery risk mapping announced and investigative/undercover - for high risk supply chains; regular - announced and unannounced - supply chain evaluation by Marshalls sustainability and procurement teams; human rights impact assessments programme; bi-annual children s rights and business principles audits; weekly in-country social auditor reports from high risk supply chains; and NGO and IGO research on the supply chain and the wider sector.

This now extends to encompass modern slavery. Under Marshalls contractual rights to audit its suppliers, we conduct routine audits or assessments of supplier performance. All of Marshalls procurement team have undergone intensive modern slavery training, delivered by our anti-slavery partner Hope for Justice, and our assessment methodologies now include assessments of human trafficking and slavery risks and indicators. In addition Marshalls external independent ethical auditor and our anti-slavery partner have undertaken a simultaneous supply chain visit in India. As a result a cohesive and rigorous programme of ethical auditing and modern slavery risk mapping is being developed for high risk supply chains. Marshalls has reserved the right to investigate instances of non-compliance with M-Way, including instances of non-compliance with laws governing human trafficking and modern slavery. All Marshalls contracts with suppliers require suppliers to comply with all applicable laws. Marshalls suppliers are also required to adhere to M-Way, which states the requirement of compliance with laws and ethical business conduct, including those laws and principles prohibiting involvement in human trafficking and slavery. When a supplier accepts our purchase order and/or enters into a contract with Marshalls, they are acknowledging and consenting to comply with all laws and with our supplier code of conduct. Other than these contractual obligations with suppliers and Marshalls reservation of right to investigate. Marshalls does not have a formal supplier certification process // Marshalls Modern Slavery Country Profiling 13

8 The following policies should be read in conjunction with this Modern Slavery and Anti Human Trafficking & Policy Statement and are available online at : Anti-Bribery Policy; Human Rights Policy; Children s Rights Policy; Social Investment Policy. In additions readers should look at the Marshalls Annual Report 2017 ( co.uk/documents/reports/2017-full-annual-report.pdf ) - and the UNGC Communication on Progress Report 2017 ( pdf ) Internal accountability standards and procedures for employees or contractors failing to meet company standards regarding slavery and trafficking: Marshalls employees are, under the terms of their employment, expected to follow all laws of the countries in which they operate and all of the organisation s policies, including the Marshalls Employee Code of Conduct. Employees who violate laws or policies are subject to disciplinary action which in certain cases can lead to dismissal. Marshalls contractors are subject to the terms of all contracts with the organisation, including obligations to comply with M-Way. Marshalls reserves its contractual rights to terminate relationships with contractors who fail to comply with law and/or whose contractual noncompliance is not addressed in a timely manner. Compliance with M-Way is an essential factor in Marshalls decision whether to enter into, continue or extend existing business relationships with a supplier or contractor. III Due diligence processes in relation to slavery and human trafficking in its business and supply chains; Due diligence processes regarding modern slavery and human trafficking are embedded throughout our procurement due diligence process. STAGE 1: INITIAL DESK-BASED DUE DILIGENCE & MODERN SLAVERY COUNTRY RISK MAPPING Marshalls has again undertaken for the second time, and will do so annually, desk-based due diligence and modern slavery risk mapping for all sourcing countries and has analysed the percentage of goods for resale procured. This has enabled us to identify high risk supply chains and to prioritise our activity regarding modern slavery. You can see the full extent of our risk mapping here [ADD URL] STAGE 2: INITIAL SUPPLIER VISIT AND AUDIT Supplier visits and audits are undertaken. This information is currently for internal consumption only but is subject to an internal audit process by KPMG annually and verification by BRE during the Ethical Labour Standards annual auditing process. STAGE 3: THIRD PARTY AUDITING & MODERN SLAVERY RISK ASSESSMENTS We currently have an annual programme of ethical auditing and modern slavery risk assessments. This remains work-in-progress as we continue our modern slavery journey. Again, whilst this is currently for internal consumption only it is subject to third party scrutiny by KPMG, BRE & ETI. STAGE 4: DETAILED HUMAN RIGHTS IMPACT ASSESSMENT AND ASSOCIATED HUMAN RIGHTS PROGRAMME Following a comprehensive supply chain modern slavery mapping exercise we are working together with our anti-slavery partner to develop appropriate anti-slavery programmes in both India and Vietnam. In conjunction with our anti-slavery partners we are also developing appropriate awareness raising and prevention programmes aimed at the wider communities, victims of slavery in the broadest sense, and working with multiple partners in India and Vietnam to develop enhanced access to remediation for victims. More details regarding this are documented in our accompanying End Modern Slavery Report This work will be expanded to include other high risk sourcing countries moving forward. IV The parts of its business and supply chains where there is a risk of slavery and human trafficking taking place, and the steps it has taken to assess and manage that risk; As previously stated, Marshalls classifies its suppliers as follows: 1) Goods for resale, e.g. natural stone. 2) Direct materials, e.g. aggregates, sand and cement. 3) Indirect purchases; consumables and services, e.g. engineering supply, canteen, cleaning. Internal processes and procedures allow us to clearly identify high risk supply chains and/or areas within our supply chains where there is an increased risk of modern slavery. It should be noted that Marshalls default position is to source from suppliers where we are able to trace back to the raw material. Since our 2017 statement Marshalls has continued to; (1) mapped its activities in relation to these three classification areas; (2) further identified high risk areas within its business and supply chain; (3) communicated developments in procedures; (4) together with appropriate third parties developed protocols which respond to the needs of victims of modern slavery in the UK, and (4) committed to reporting transparently on any and all instances of modern slavery identified within its business and supply chains. Details of this activity are documented in our End Modern Slavery Report 2018 which will accompanies this Statement and is made available in the reports section of our website [ADD NEW URL]. Additionally, readers can also view our modern slavery risk mapping rationale and country profiles at [ADD NEW URL]. V Its effectiveness in ensuring that slavery and human trafficking is not taking place in its business or supply chains, measured against such performance indicators as it considers appropriate. Marshalls remains committed to supporting the Independent Anti-Slavery Commissioner s efforts to identify and eradicate modern slavery and human trafficking in order to ensure that individuals do not suffer as victims and that Marshalls does not become a corporate victim of the organised criminals engaged in modern slavery and human trafficking. Since our last statement the organisation has done this by; Continuing a programme of internal awareness throughout UK business operations involving all employees regarding modern slavery; what it is, who it affects and why it matters to Marshalls. This has included online & face-to-face training, the training and introduction 14 // Marshalls Modern Slavery Country Profiling 15
